Happy Thanksgiving! We have so much to be grateful for in life including our wonderful dogs. Yes, they’re loyal, funny and lovable. But dogs help us in so many ways. On this holiday, let’s not forget to thank our dogs for:

• Lowering our cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

• Bringing down our blood pressure and reducing stress.

• Increasing our survival after heart attacks. The odds for surviving following a heart attack is 1 in 87. If you have a dog, your survival rate jumps to 1 in 15.
